Supplier price increase due to fuel prices going up

[William Taylor]

Yes everything is going up.

All sheet materials by about 7.5%

Pir board 17.5%

Plastics 8.5%

List goes on

[Vincent Rafferty]

Its the building game, its effected by everything and prices go through the roof

[Tony Gammage]

Don’t u watch the news,surely u can’t be serious…fuel is going up ,food is going up,everything is going up but you seem to think building materials are not

[Thomas Murphy]

Yes this is happening on all materials. Our builder has purchased all upfront ( we have paid for them) and as we have space to store them that’s how we are trying to protect against increases. I think you also need to be prepared for longer lead times for supplies as well.

[Micheal Carter]

We are window installers and have had notifications this week of price increases on all products, some with immediate affect.

[Stephen Marsh]

This is true, but what’s more worrying is you’re on here questioning your builders integrity, and he’s not even put a shovel in the ground!!!

[Simon Fitton]

that doesn’t mean u dont question things u dont understand or have experience of. Im guessing u either arent in the building game or havent been in long if u dont know theres a lot of rubbish spoken.

[Sam Johnson]

Landfill tax are going thru the roof ,quarried products £2 per ton ,steel up due to green taxes then add on extra fuel costs

[Royale Roofing]

I’ve had about 4 merchants message me in the last 2 weeks saying price increases imminent due to war in Iran.

[Michael Rogers]

If your contract is signed your builder can still increase pricing with a formal change order. A quote is legally binding, an estimate is not and can be changed. Your builder wants to make sure his paperwork is in order and worded correctly as you’re already questioning there integrity lol. Also if your ideas and plans change throughout or at any point the quote is no longer valid.

8 yard skip was £50 more expensive today than one I got from the same company in February

[Richard Ward]

Local supplier near me put this up a couple days ago

[Qamar Hussian]

Yeah! I work in the Natural Fibre Insulation business and thankfully it’s only our transportation that will be rising, however, we’ve seen some PIR companies starting from 17% but expecting to rise up to around 34%!

[Phillipa Martin]

It’s also April so any good business will be reviewing their costs, sorting payrises inline with inflation etc

[Pete Taylor]

I believe big project that go on for moths probably will have a clause init.

As I remember after Covid the back to back inflation of 10% I was only able to hold the price the day it was given

[Paul Moore]

Steel fabrication here – steel has gone up roughly £70-£100 per tonne weekly for the last 3 weeks and will keep going

[Patrick Hughes]

Lots of price rises happened yesterday and there are more coming over the next few months. Fuel is a big one due to the current crisis.

The biggest rises have been in PIR insulation, OSB and MDF.

You can expect any high energy usage suppliers to raise their prices very soon – brick manufacturers being one.

[nigel-rowley]

Yes I have had numerous emails from the suppliers most look like this

[Neil Andrews]

To be honest when 60p a litre is added to fuel bill every will go up. I’m a wedding photographer so all my contracts were locked in 2 years ago which I except and always factor in a little cost rise but this week alone everything has jumped in cost with inflation. The fuel just adds a dent I wasn’t expecting along with many industries

[Mike Newbould]

Tell him you can’t afford it and put it on ice. People keep finding the money prices will keep going up.

[Michael Babbin]

I run a tile showroom and the pallet delivery cost from Europe has up.

But as we are small and independent we have not passed on that to our customers yet. Please.DM if you need tiles for your project and I can help you save cost
